I'd be interested in people's views on the choice I should make.
I have to admit that the ability to choose a Mk4 set may well swing it - but I am considering a Weekend First upgrade for a trip from Newark or Grantham to Kings Cross.
I think I am correct to say that this is a rather steep for the distance (IMHO) £35 with LNER or £25 with Hull Trains. Obv I will get a larger seat and hopefully a calmer environment, and I see I will get a food offer with both (tho looks like not hot with Hull Trains - making the £10 extra to LNER a pricey energy supplement to serve something warm like a bacon roll )
Assuming I have got my facts correct (corrections welcome).
What do other users of the 2 services think represents the best value or things I should consider when making my choice. For me 'value' does not mean 'cheapest'.
I need walk up flexibility so Advance 1st priced tickets are not an option on this occasion.
Thanks in advance
